It really bugs me when people claim to be born without a talent. So here's a rant that may or may not be motivating:

Nobody is "born" talented. You don't just come out of the womb being good at doing something. That's utter ******** and a cop out of actually practising a skill you could be damn well good at if you just practised. You are not untalented,you are just unmotivated.

There is not a baby born out there who is born and walks within the first hour of life, or can control their limbs after the first day. They learn to do that, and it takes time. They practice controlling their body and it takes months and months before they're good enough to walk.

And that's no different than picking up a guitar, drawing pencil or even a book for the first time. You must PRACTISE. You do that, you will LEARN, and you will get BETTER.

You learned as a child how to read from zero skill in that.
You learned as a child how to add numbers from zero skill in that.
You learned as a baby how to walk from absolutely no skill in that.
You will learn, no matter what age you are, how to do anything you want without having any skill in whatever it is you want to do. But you have to learn! You have to practise!
Because that's what it is to be human. There is nothing stopping you from doing what you want to do apart from you.

You CAN ******* do it! You can do ******* ANYTHING you want to do! Quit telling yourself you can't because you don't have the motivation! You will never learn to do anything without putting in the effort!

You will start from nothing but you WILL get better!
You WILL mess up on occasion!
You WILL get angry and frustrated!
You WILL feel like giving up because of it.
But you CANNOT just give in! You have to keep going and keep practising and keep LEARNING.

YOU have to keep moving forward no matter what happens!

No one is born being good at anything! EVERYONE has to practise to get better. And Anyone can do anything they want to do if they put in the blood, sweat and tears to do it!

Hello old friend, how have you been?
I feel like its been forever since i last spoke to anyone.
How has the thread been doing, is there a 4 or higher? I miss the times we all had every last moment, as a community, as a family.
also music

i need to upgrade mine, it will cost me around 2 grand, dont really want to spend that much. Asus laptops/computers have been pretty good for me, mine has lasted about 2 years and still can play most new thhing with little to no trouble, i just feel like soon i may need a new one.

I've been thinking it over, and that's not how SPECIALs are used in fallout.
I think I'm going to have a kind of static thing. for instance, if you wanna rip doors off their hinges for shields in this one, you're gonna need a strength of at least seven

Lately I been, I been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But, baby I been, I've been praying hard
Said no more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars
Yeah, we'll be counting stars

I work 40+ hours a week.
Sometimes, like last week, and maybe this week, I'm in every day of the week.
It's very tiring. It makes me feel bad I don't have the energy to do more for him. But he's like a 100x more lewd than I am.

of course i understand completely, you work hard and that's very understandable. he tells me a lot about how devoted you work and still take the time out of your day to talk to time, which i consider to really be sweet of you.

if i can help you in any way to help lift the burden off your stressful life, i would gladly help for you.
